“Although Ashley and Mary-Kate will not be a part of ‘Fuller House,’ I know how much ‘Full House’ meant to them and they are still very much considered family,” said Robert L. Boyett, the show’s executive producer, in a statement given to The Hollywood Reporter.

The Olsen twins started filming in the role of Michelle at 9 months old, and remained on the show for its full eight seasons. They now run Dualstar, a lifestyle and fashion company.

The new season will center on other members of the original Tanner clan, including D. J. (Candace Cameron Bure) and Stephanie (Jodie Sweetin).

The Olsens’ former co-star John Stamos, who announced the show’s return on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” last month, tweeted that he was “heartbroken” the twins would not be returning.

Still, there’s always a chance they’ll change their minds: David Lynch recently returned to the revival of “Twin Peaks” after renouncing his ties to the project.
